Spanish term or phrase: estandarte
Así clásicos del liberalismo como Locke, Montesquieu, Madison o Tocqueville acaban siendo reivindicados tanto desde la tradición republicana como desde la liberal, mientras que otros como Rousseau, que tradicionalmente había sido el *estandarte* del republicanismo, o no están, o son calificados en algunas ocasiones de demasiado populistas.

Thanks.

  -> Why the dash? I don't get you!! It is hyphenated. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard-bearer. With all due respect Arrigo, ProZ is here to help, not to nit-pick. If it is a great choice, then what? We help the askers by giving opinions, simple as that

archetype


Explanation:
An archetype (pronounced: // (Brit.) or // (Amer.)) is an original model of a person, ideal example, or a prototype after which others are copied, patterned, or emulated; a symbol universally recognized by all. In psychology, an archetype is a model of a person, personality, or behavior.

Asker: Thank you. I will include this option in the glossary. In this case, arquetipo appears later in the text, so I went for another option.
